As there's been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, or it's been a number of months since the last owner note. I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future (next 30 days), just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it. Should you replace the cache after 30 days has passed please create a new cache listing so it can be reviewed as a new cache.

Was going to try again but it was bucketing down as we drove past so not today.
 
08-Feb-15
After seeing the spoiler pic and knowing where the GPS had '0', I'd say the coords are a fair way out here hence the DNF's. Would be nice to see that corrected if thats the case.

Captain Terror and I decided it was a beautiful day to go for a drive. We headed out towards the Natural Arch and after a lovely lunch and a walk around the area we jumped back in the car and headed south. We weren't heading down this way for anything in particular. The Captain just wanted to show me the view. Then I realised this cache was nearby and had a dnf on it. The Captain had been to this cache before and I thought I would get him to check it for the Cache Owner.

We got there and he couldn't find the cache. We searched above my head height, we even searched above the Captain's head height if that is possible! We checked the ground in case it has fallen but nope, not there. We decided to replace it for the cache owner as I had a spare mint tin in the car. We added a logbook and the Captain rehid it. It isn't exactly where he found it but until the cache owner is able to replace it with a better container it was the only spot that would conceal our container. The cache is still up high, just a bit further back than it used to be. I will send you a photo of where it is Bristracker. Thanks for the cache, I loved the area out here.

No luck there was about 7 of us looking to no avail.

Found on our way home from Tyalgum. On our way South we saw this stall and Mrs THR wanted to stop and check out the wares. Coming back we knew exactly were to stop. Just as we pulled off the road a car came in from the north to pick up some fruit. We both walked over and looked like we were also interested buyers. Mrs THR spotted the goods and as soon as the buyer left we had the cache in hand. We also picked up a great deal on ladyfingers. TFTC Bristracker

We were heading down to Sydney for our church conference and had been told that the Motorway was a parking lot and it was taking forever to get to the border so we decided we would head inland and clean out some more in this area.

It was great to be travelling through this gorgeous area, and avoiding the constant stream of brake lights as well.

We knew what we were looking for with this one but we were surprised by this quaint old structure.

We checked out the limited produce and then did a quick search for the prize and soon had it in hand.

I had just signed the log when another car pulled up so we acted like tourists and I slipped the cache back in position.

Thanks Bristracker TFTC SL

Found a while ago with ash&shaun1003 and ness&kadin92.
 
08-Mar-14
Quick & easy find TFTC
 
08-Mar-14
ashlee.18 and I got distracted by the two horses that were on the other side of the fence, which gave ash a chance to jump in and grab it!
 
24-Feb-14
We should have read the previous logs here a bit better as we spent some time looking in the trees and following the GPSr before cachesenses prevailed and Sal spotted the carefully hidden cache. The horses got a quick feed from us before we headed off. Thanks bristracker, for placing the 503rd cache we've found so far! Smile

Out with Brother Colin on a big day Big Grin First his 5000th find in the company of teamdfl and Griffo, then two other multi-caches completed, and with more time on our hands than expected we decided to take the long drive through Murwillumbah then back up to this CO's Event at The Spit which we both wanted to attend this afternoon. Imagine my delight when BC mentions this one along our way [^] Another bristracker cache to grab Cool We pulled up right nearby, and I set off for my search. Mmmm, look here, look there, read the hint, oh that's helpful... searching slightly more intelligently Razz and gotcha! Glad to make this one a smilie. TFTC, bristracker.
 
06-Feb-14
We have had a lovely day out caching. Had to read a few logs for hints. Good hide.
 
29-Jan-14
This took a while to find,but eventually got there,disappointed,I would have bought some sweet corn but only had a twenty dollar note.TFTC.
 
21-Jan-14
Bought some pumpkins after finding the hide. Termites have been busy. TFTC.
 
09-Jan-14
I decided to go for a country drive up the Numinbah Valley and over the border to pick up this one and the last of the lolly loop, drop off some TB's at a few of my caches and then pick up Ms Maddy's new cace at Kingscliff. A long drive to clear my head. This time I not only made a find here but bought some sweet potatoes and a bag of onions. Bananas and corn were for sale as well but I'm not a fan of either of these foods. Thanks bristracker.

Day five of the Xmas road trip. Big GrinBig GrinBig Grin

Mum has recently bought a van to travel around Australia in a few months time. Cool
So a test run was needed. [^]
So a few days were planned to head south from Brissy and travel from cache to cache. Smile
On Xmas Day we slowly we made our way south to Byron Bay and then up to Brunswick Heads looking for a caravan park to stay for the night without success. Sad Eventually we found space at Wooyung. Smile

Boxing day had us making our way slowly north going from cache to cache. It seems every caravan park up the coast is full so we decided to head inland, eventually finding space in Murwillumbah. Big Grin Lots of caches out this way as well. [^]

Yesterday I had to go to work at the Gold Coast. Sad Back today to find more caches over the week-end. Wink

Day four had us having a slow start to the day and slowly finding caches around town and fished up with an awesome Multi. Big Grin

Day five was planned to clean up a few that we have missed. Smile This one had us going around and around and around and around and .... Twisted After both of us had checked that spot from a slightly different angle and not seeing it, I spotted it. Big Grin Thank goodness. Razz

Thanks for the cache.
 
29-Dec-13
Found while on Christmas caching holiday with Brother Colin. TFTC With a little bit of help from a friendly rat....and a good deal of searching we found the cache.
 
24-Dec-13
No 'mannas on sale today. In fact the stall looks as though it will fall over at any moment. Mika and I chatted to the horse through the fence noticed other DNF's and difficulties and so abandoned this one. PS When I met up with teamdfl later she told me where it was for my next visit if I ever happen to be out here again. Thanks bristracker anyway.
 
24-Dec-13
Out galavanting today. Heading to Mexico to fill in an empty box in my finds by date placed box. This was my first port of call for the day. No offerings here today. Had to use the clue to find the cache.
 
02-Nov-13
Out for a nice drive in the country with my non geocaching wife this was the one and only stop for the day. Un fortunately I used up the caching tolerance allowance in one hit, unsuccessfully as well Sad.

Decided to go on a days driving down to the NSW border and then in a loop back up to the Gold Coast. Didn't start particularly early, but early enough to complete the run. There were some caches bypassed for time, but the ones we did, I thought were a collection of good and fun caches for the day. In total, we found just over 30, including an Earth Cache, for my 50th Earth Cache find. Aussie Liahona caches featured heavily during the run, which was great, as they are always entertaining. Thanks to all cache owners for hiding and maintaining their caches.
---------------------------------------------------------------
GPSr put us about 10m away in the trees, but, after a hunt there, and almost leaving, I thought, just one more go, and sure enough, found. A bit of caching sense, and it will be easy. TFTC.

After tackling a hill somewhat north I noticed this cheeky icon on my map that I'd missed picking up until now. So in the Car with Fangsoki, Nyssaflutterby and I directed him to 'DRIVE!'. We arrived to find a deserted GZ, so deserted that there wasn't even any wares for sale. The nearby sign (oh, that's right, we're in NSW) was cheering on a local sporting team, so after locating the chalk I made sure to alter that to the 'right' team.

We made a mockery of trying to find the cache but Fang pointed us in the right direction. Logbook was signed and with Fang's words of 'Are you finally finished there Picasso?' we hopped back in the car and headed off homewards. TFTC bristracker Smile
 
23-Jun-13
One last cache for the day after tackling a mighty mountain! Captain Terror, Fangsoki and I drove down to find this cache from further up the way. Upon reaching GZ we knew we were not in QLD anymore Toto. Such strange writings on their boards about a NSW team winning something or rather. Hmmmm, where is the chalk? Wink

The Captain and I hunted about the lovely little fruit stall for a while until the all-wise and knowing Fangsoki wizard showed us the way. Ah! There it is Smile Log signed, chalk replaced, gate closed. We all then clicked our magical red slippers together and transported home in the lovely "still smells like just of the rack" Fangsoki mobile. There's no place like home!

Second one in NSW for me and this one hasn't been found for awhile either. This poor old stall has seen better days but it's still doing it's job. Checked out the produce then had a look around. Soon spotted the little devil with it's stickers looking back at me. Signed log and grabbed a couple of avocardos.
Thanks again bristracker.
Definitely a favorite.

From Sydney to Newcastle, to Central Coast, to Watagan NP, to Tapee, to Coffs Habour, to Ballina allong the Gold Coast up to Brisbane and return to Sydney we found many nicely hidden containers.
We would like to thank everyone for showing us such nice locations and of course, the numerous caches.

Thanks and best greetings from Germany

If you find a better set of co-ordinates please share them with us. It could be a while before I get down that way.

Wandered off before coming back for one last go. Saw it from the wrong side . Our coordinates were saying 16m away but we new better. Cheers
 
21-Dec-12
Our GPS had us over near a tree, which we had seen the spoiler photo.
Thanks any way bristracker, next time when we are in the area we will have another look.
 
12-Aug-12
Feeling ready for an afternoon snack, this was a welcome stop and had some tasty treats for us. And also a cache of course! Thanks bristracker
 
12-Aug-12
Headed into Mexico (south of the border) with Fangsoki and the Lokipagans to track down some lolly bags and other caches along the way.

No. 25 for the day. Guess what the lolly bag loop was missing? Banana!!! We didn't go for the candy one but the real ones on this cache.

Fangsoki bought some bananas as the log was signed and we chomped on them as we headed up the road checking out the view.

Thanks for the cache BT. Cheers!

The spoiler photo helped locate this little cache. Spent a while here until the muggles buying fruit left. Thanks again for the cache Bristracker
 
05-Aug-12
A great place for a hide, signed the piece of paper, thanks.
 
17-Jun-12
Thank goodness there was fruit today and good it was too. I wonder if the stall owner know this is there as ther are ct cameras, well they say that any way. TFTC
 
17-Jun-12
Bwahahaha - The picture of Mr Aussie Liahona gave me a chuckle.

I was a little warey about doing this one - but there was no one at GZ and so it made a search for Pigwig2 and I a bit easier (Team Herbz had already done it). Pigwig2 soon had the elusive beast in hand (thankfully - all I had managed to find was a screwdriver and some chalk Sad).

I decided to avail myself of some bananas. $2 for 8 seemed a fair price!

Glad we didn't do this when anyone was about - or I would not have stopped. TFTC Bristracker Smile
 
17-Jun-12
Mrs Herbz busied herself with buying some bananas and avos as the Herbzs had previously found this one so it was down to Fangsoki and I to get down to business of finding this one. With me one side and Fangsoki the other it was soon extracted from it hiding spot TFTC

04-Jun-12
No luck today due to muggles.
 
06-May-12
There were some muggles buying fruit when we pulled up so geowife wandered down to the creek to take some photo's while I looked at the fruit. The muggles soon moved on and I started the hunt. Soon had the cache in hand. Just as I placed the cache back in it's hide some more muggles pulled up. Very good timing.

Remember looking at the photo spoiler last night but was unable to get any phone service at GZ. Eventually found. Bought some beautiful bananas from the stall as well.


Thanks

Water was gushing over the causeway as we cautiously drove through. We found the stall and partook in the free lady finger bananas, very tasty. After a little bit of wandering around as GPSr was jumping about, Mr. Herbs suddenly spied the cache. TFTC BT.

Thanks to Aussie Liahona for pointing out I had uploaded the wrong spoiler photo. Sorry about that because it must have been confusing.Now for a more useful spoiler photo.....

Having left one of our granddaughters' birthday dinner tonight we came a cache-hunting.Big Grin There was a full moon which was good coz only one of us had a torch. Smile

We arrived at GZ to the heavenly scent of fresh farm ripened bananas.[^] After a year of barely tasting a banana we are still relishing them whenever possible.Razz

With the assistance of one torch, car headlights and the moon we began our cache search. The clue gave us some help and it wasn't long before one of us was able to have the nearer one feel in what looked like a likely spot to hold a geocache. Yep there it was.Big Grin Now have any lurking southerners beaten us to the find? [?] That was the question on everyones lips!![:X] Yea! A clean log at 9:10pm for a Big Grin FTF Big Grin.

We are so glad no cars drove past us while we were there.Surprised It certainly would have looked like we were stealing the bananas and pumpkins we definitely paid for. Even before we'd driven away we'd each started eating the bananas. Delicious!! Big GrinBig GrinBig Grin Thanks for bringing us here Bristracker. Not only a cache smilie, but a FTF, and some bananas and pumpkins. What more could we want?![^][^]
